Joan, George and Scott, we are so sorry for your loss. Aunt Catherine touched so many lives and she’ll be missed. She was blessed to have you by her side.
Such a lovely tribute to a great woman. She lived a splendid life, and we are pleased to have been a teeny tiny part of it. Your family is blessed.
